Abstract The PCR test was carried out on tomato(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)leaves which were infected by TYLCV in the greenhouse in Shouguang region of Shandong Province using the prime PA/PB.The results showed the yellow leaf curl disease found in Shouguang was caused by TYLCV.A DNA fragment(770 bp in length)encoding TYLCV coat protein(TYLCV-CP)was amplified and inserted into pEASY-T1 Simple vector.After double digestion with Xho I and EcoR I,the fragment was inserted into vector pET-32a.A 50 kD recombinant protein of TYLCV-CP from isolate of Shouguang highly expressed by IPTG in E. coli BL21(DE3)showed a high antigenic activity.
